Using Bump Button Timing With Submasters; Execute List - ETC Ion Operation Manual

[Cue] [5] [Sub] [4] [Enter] - loads the contents of cue 5 to submaster 4 (a {CopyTo} command
will appear within the syntax on the command line).
[Cue] [5] [Load] - loads cue 5 to the submaster associated with the chosen load button.
[-] [5] [Cue] [5] [Sub] [6] [Enter] - loads the contents of cue 5, minus channel 5, to submaster 6.
[Cue] [1] [Thru] [5] [Sub] [1] [Thru] [4] [+] [7] - sequentially loads cues 1 through 5 to subs 1, 2,
3, 4 and 7.
[Cue] [1] [Thru] [5] [Sub] [1] [Thru] [Enter] - sequentially loads cues 1 through 5 to subs 1
through 5 (a {CopyTo} command will appear within the syntax on the command line).

Using Bump Button Timing With Submasters

Each submaster bump can have three different timing values: Up fade, Dwell, and Down fade (see
Submaster Properties (on
flash key for additive submasters and an "off" flash key for inhibitive submasters. Effects on sub-
masters will follow submaster timing, unless timing has been placed in the effect itself.
Note:
master triggered with time.
To add bump button timing live:
[Sub] [8] [Time] [3] [Time] [4] [Time] [3] [Enter] - adds a 3 second up fade, 4 second dwell and 3
second down fade to submaster 8.
[Sub] [2] [Time] [Time] {Manual} [Time] [3] [Enter] - adds a manual dwell time and a 3 second
down fade time to submaster 2. When the bump is pressed and held, it will flash on and stay
on until the button is released. It will then begin the down fade.
[Sub] [4] [Time] [3] [Time] {Hold} [Enter] - adds a 3 second up fade time, and a hold dwell time.
When the bump is pressed, the up fade starts. Once at the target value it will remain there
until the button is pressed again. The down fade will bump to zero.
[Sub] [3] [Time] [Enter] - resets all time for submaster 3 to default (Up = 0, Dwell = Manual,
Down = 0).
Controlling Subfades Manually
It is possible to take control of submasters even if they have recorded time. To capture the fade, you
must push the fader past the current fade level. Once this is done, control is transferred to the fader
for full manual control.
You may then use the fader to increase or decrease the submaster level as needed.

Execute List

The execute list for submasters can be used to trigger actions such as macros, snapshots, MIDI Raw,
Serial Strings, and cues. This works similar to the External Links for cues.
There is an {Execute} softkey that is available after you press the [Sub] button in either Live, Blind, or
the sub list display.
When you press {Execute}, the softkeys will change to {String}, {Macro}, {Relay}, {On}, {Off}, {Snap-
shot}, and {MIDI Raw}.

At any time, the fader can be used to manually override fade progression or a sub-
